Hell No, Im exactly the same. Some girls made my life hell back in school and I see them around.. still exactly the same people as in school, lifes not going so great and I cant help feel happy for the beauty of Karma.

All the kids who used to take the piss out of me at school - oddly enough, for being smart, and reading in registration, rather than doing my hair - are in different states of crapness; most are single parents, and either working minimum wage or on the dole.

I feel righteous, but it's not as pronounced lately as I'm unemployed until I move to Germany next week

Wow, I hope this isn't how all of TSR feel and this is just a group of resentful snobs that are replying to this thread. I don't know, as fortunately I was never bullied and was never a bully.

But how can people assume someone's life is miserable and worthless just because of their facebook profile or they work in tesco? They probably have dreams and aspirations too you know. By working in a low paid job they may be saving money to make something happen.

Oh and just because you are at university doesn't mean you have proven anything yet. You don't work or pay taxes and you are not in the real world yet so stop thinking you are above people who choose another route to take in life. I was the opposite at uni and didn't like the student status, so much so that I started my own business while I was their and it's still going today.

I am a lad and don't plan to have kids for ALONG time but I'm sure these "miserable" people from school who have kids are in fact having the best time of their lives with their children.

So how in anyway does going to a better university, or having a better job make you a better person??? There are plenty of decent people out there who live on minimum wage, and they will be "better" people than those of you who feel snobbish. No wonder some of you got bullied if you feel arrogant enough about having a little piece of paper that says you attended some university for three years of your life.

I used to feel the same. I was doing well at uni and having parties every night whilst all my other friends had gone straight into full time work. Now the tables have turned, however. I am now finished and am struggling to find any job at all while most of my friends have now worked their way up and are earning ~£20,000 a year.

People take different routes in life. Some go to uni, some don't. But there is no guarantee that you will end up doing better than everyone else simply because you went to uni. Speaking from experience, it doesn't always work like that.

I am now at my final year in university with a future ahead of me (something which I never thought was possible during my school years). I can’t help feeling self- satisfied that I have made something of my life, whereas these people who made my life hell- are now either stuck in low- paid jobs/unemployed (living off benefits), or single with a flock of children

.…… am I just as bad as them?

I found a facebook page dedicated to the memory of a guy that had died, who made my life hell for 5 years of high school.
